Yup. Rippling.com. See this thread. https://twitter.com/parkerconrad/status/1634237386564730882 tl;dr: A lot of payroll checks that were cut earlier this week were routed through SVB but didn't make it to their recipients before SVB was shut down.

Read There is an extreme difference between what you can do by yourself as a 100k+/yr salaried programmer, and what someone who washes dishes/does trade labor/whatever, who splits costs with somebody (or two somebodies!). Like if nothing else changed except I had fixed work hours and guaranteed stable income in that range, I would effectively be in a different class than where i'm at now, yes.

The worker/capital distinction fundamentally revolves around people who receive wages for their labor (who are considered a cost to be minimized), and people who earn profits from capital they own via the exploitation of that labor (which is to be maximized) . That social distinction is sufficiently more important than "I make less money than this other jerk" or "I am stupid and ugly" that people have written books about it and everything you can maybe try reading one.

You maybe be in separate classes (categories) but those are both subsets of working class. E: dividing the working class like this is a tool capital uses top prevent class solidarity.

Weka posted:By "eat poo poo" it seems you mean "get paid less", so disagree. Not at all, I'm not big on the whole "crabs in a bucket" thing. People itt are suggesting they deserve to be out of work. I do believe the whole tech sector is massively inflated by very cheap money, and we are seeing maybe the first major crack in that system. That bubble isn't tech workers fault at all, if I didn't have a learning disability that prevents me from coding I probably would have gone down that path eons ago. I would much rather my former comrades in retail be overpaid than see other workers brought down to starvation wages. Tech entrepreneurs are not workers and I don't give two shits what happens to them.

I do understand the animosity against tech workers though, as a whole they tend to express negative solidarity with workers. I've been told to "learn to code" many a time by some rear end in a top hat coder. When I point out I'm not capable of coding they usually double down.
